Recipe: Pita Pizzas

One of my favorite cheats definitely is pizza! I LOVE PIZZA. But, I like to replace a regular pizza with a healthier version. Everybody is familiar with the tortilla pizzas, but I like to have different kinds of topping and eating 3 tortilla pizzas is way to much for me. So I decided to use whole wheat pita's!
I made 4 pizzas with 4 different toppings, so me and my boyfriend ate them together for lunch. Read on if you want the recipes!

What you need for the sauce:(I use this on every pita pizza)

Take one pita bread and use a sharp knife to separate the bottom and top. Place them on a baking sheet with the outside down.

Cover them both with the sauce. Top it with Parmesan cheese, tuna, red onion, more Parmesan and some black pepper to taste.
